GUI to select from typical actions to do

Registered by Lars Friedrichs

This blueprint has been superseded. See the newer blueprint "Start a user contributed script repository" for updated plans.

For novice users and to ease the use of advanced users there should be a GUI with ready made actions to stuff together to be executed instead of writing a special script.

Whiteboard

Have a list of (detect if installed) applications like exaile, pidgin, which screensaver, etc. and have each app have some actions defined like 'set away','pause','continue'.
Change the visuals of the textbox to a list of already setup commands and add 'add','modify','remove' buttons to it.
'add' and 'modify' open a window where to enter all variables of the script action that have been defined in the config files.
Hovering over an entry of the actions list should show a tooltip showing all settings of that action while the list itself only shows the abstract name of the action.
